^I wasn't directed that at you. I was trying to let newbies know that they have no reason to feel left out.

I'll claim TC then, my different gendered mind twin. Also, NL, I totally understand what you mean. I'm a member at a few other forums, and the core groups of them seem so tight knit and intimidating. I'm not sure how to integrate myself into them yet, I think lurking is best for me... but if you want to quickly get to know members, I'd suggest using the cbox at the bottom of the forum. When I first joined SA, I frequented there, and made some lasting friends in less than a month. Feeling like an outsider really sucks, I agree. I'll be your friend, if you want! From what I've read of your posts, you seem like a pretty coo' guy.

I would not have guessed that this thread would end up bringing up issues like this (people feeling outcasted). For me SlayAlive was the most welcoming place I've ever been a part of that I can honestly be myself 100 percent all the time. But I think to feel that inclusion you have to share yourself more. I don't think this has to do with who's been registered here longer (oldies/newbies), It's about who's made lasting impressions quicker on people more so than others simply by talking/listening and overall contributing to this site by being here and posting and keeping this site active. And sure we have disagreements with each other sometimes (Sky! and your rule!) but I get over it and move on because we're all friends here and everyone should feel included! I'd like to claim Ray!

Threads like this are why I limit coming here now. This place is just too closed in to outsiders. Too close a community to be included in. I'm sure this will get plenty of "dislikes" or "karma" points taken away but that's just how I feel. Of course the response to that could be "then take your business elsewhere". I guess it'll be a game of "wait and see". hmmm. im sorry you feel that way.......but i mean this thread is only meant for fun, and to even make more friends! just because alot of the slayalive community has uber good friends around here doesn't mean we do not like new people or what you call "outsiders". I have found to like alot of newbies! We were all newbies once, so I understand how you feel NL197. I guess you just find your niche, post, share, and it's not so clique-y anymore. I mean, I rarely post in the S8 threads, so I'm sure there is a close-knit group of posters over there but hey, wherever we post, we're still all Slayalivers .

I'm so glad that instead of this thread turning hostile or maybe just non-fun, which I feared, I am surrounded by love and nice slayalivers (even those who dislike my rule love me, or will, after the programming is done). Claims added! I'll claim TC then, my different gendered mind twin. I should know who that is, but I can't remember. Full name please? I like ya, Sky. IDK if I matter much, but yeah. Of course you do! Thank you! *heart healed* I only ever laugh at you, Sky. Never with you. *heart crushed* Nah, you know you love me. Nice thread slowly turning bad.......... Ahahahaha. Just to flaunt the rules further, there is about 15 members I want to claim. and here is that list: JOKES! I won't really flaunt the rules further! Mainly cos Sky scares me. Good to know, good to know...

@ Iceeh
Oh, I thought TC was short for some else. *facepalm*
I should have known who he was...
Claim added.
@ Secret Scoobie
Aw, I was a option? That's good, I was afraid we had driven too far apart. Drift? What is that word...

I thought so at first, but all of a sudden 'driven' sounded better.
BTW, people, in the new forum, I'll start this thread all over and you can pick new claimees.

Nooooo, absolutely not.

Of course, if you don't choose me, I will hate you forever (see, the rule is good).

@ Secret Scoobie Aw, I was a option? That's good, I was afraid we had driven too far apart. Drift? What is that word... aww really? That's sad! I didn't think we'd drifted apart, mostly just thought my big bout of absenteeism was my downfall. I hope you still like me? I'll always love youuuu! Hehe.

I love you too. We have both been absent though, you just a bit more. Glad we're still friends.
